Famous quotes containing the words health and/or care:

    As they move into sharing parenting, men often are apprentices to women because they are not yet as skilled in child care. Mothers have to be willing to teach fathers—both by stepping in and showing and by stepping back and letting them learn.
    —Nancy Press Hawley. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 6 (1978)

    If ye live enough befure thirty ye won’t care to live at all afther fifty.
    Finley Peter Dunne (1867–1936)
